"The essays in this volume are written by clinicians, psychologists, sociologists, educators, parents and de-transitioners. Contributors demonstrate how transgender children and young people are invented in different medical, social and political contexts: from specialist gender identity development services to lobby groups and their school resources, gender guides and workbooks; from the world of the YouTube vlogger to the consulting rooms of psychiatrists; from the pharmaceutical industry to television documentaries; and from the developmental models of psychologists to the complexities of intersex medicine. Far from just investigating how they are invented the authors demonstrate the considerable psychological and physical harms perpetrated on children and young people by transgender ideology, and offer tangible examples of where and how adults should intervene to protect them."--Publisher

"Argentina was the first nation in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage. It also passed legislation making it one of the most advanced countries worldwide in terms of transgender rights—the culmination of a long battle fought by LGBTQ support groups. Award-winning photographer Kike Arnal collaborates with individuals in Argentinian transgender communities, living side by side with them and documenting their day-to-day lives in a series of strikingly intimate color and black-and-white images. Among them are a former sex worker who is now a recognized leader of the Buenos Aires trans community, a single trans mother of three teenage girls whose partner had fallen victim to drug abuse, and the residents of the Hotel Gondolin, a small, derelict family hotel now inhabited by a few dozen trans women. Despite the progress, the situation in Argentina is far from perfect. Trans people are still discriminated against and subject to verbal violence, physical assault, and police abuse. Of interest to LGBTQ activists and photography enthusiasts alike, Revealing Selves is both a celebration of the trans community in Argentina and a clear-eyed examination of what remains to be done in the struggle for trans rights." -- publisher's website

Transgender, Transkulturalität, Transnationalität - Konzepte des Trans erleben eine politische und wissenschaftliche Konjunktur. In ihnen geht die Forderung nach einer Öffnung von soziokulturellen Identitäten auf. Doch die fluide gewordenen Grenzen von nationalen, sozialen und körperlichen Räumen drohen sich in Traditionen und Neorassismen erneut zu verfestigen: So werden Werte der bürgerlichen Kleinfamilie ebenso wie rechtspopulistische Positionen nicht nur immer wieder thematisiert, sondern in verschiedenen medialen und sozialen Kanälen reproduziert.Die Beiträge des Bandes fragen daher: Durch welche Prozesse essentialisieren sich Transkonzepte - und an welchen normativen Grenzen zerbrechen sie?

A richly evocative collection of photographs by internationally renowned photographer Kike Arnal, Bordered Lives seeks to push back against the transphobic caricatures that have perpetuated discrimination against the transgender community in Mexico. Despite some important advances in recognizing and protecting the rights of its transgender community, including legislating against hate crimes targeting transgender people, discrimination still persists, and the majority of the violent attacks against the LGBT community are against transgender women.In the highly personal profiles that make up Bo
